Here in tally

car tires are near melting point. The next three days are set to be 100+ degrees.

A reporter once asked Rickey Henderson if he talked to himself, "Do I talk to myself? No, I just remind myself of what I’m trying to do. You know, I never answer myself so how can I be talking to myself?"

Defensive metrics are not my forte

but I had trouble putting you guys above a C+ with that many errors, especially if Burrell is playing.

I got a similar comment from Seattle fans from me giving them an F

I’m operating on the idea that the best gets an A+ and worst gets an F, not that an A+ is technically perfect and an F offense has zero MLB talent on it. Just trying to stretch the scale so I don’t end up with so many grades in the C range. So A+ means I’m more scared of the Rays’ sticks than any other team. By quite a margin.

The 2009 Rays are kind of like watching the new Beverly Hills 90210: Some of the same cast members are there, but overall, the whole effort is just undeniably lame…………….But for some reason, Joe Maddon’s 2009 bunch seems a lot less scintillating than his 2008 mavericks. Nine doesn’t equal eight anymore.

I posted on this a few weeks back and had no response from anyone but I have a further question if anyone knows. We took my 5 year old daughter to a game at the Trop back about a month ago. Being 5 she is FASCINATED with the players and the interaction during/before/after the game. B.J. Upton was walking in the player parking lot and in her squeaky five year old voice, she screams at the top of her lungs….

“B.J., Hey B.J., Over here B.J.!!!!!”

Hoping for nothing more than a wave. He did not even turn his head and completely ignored her. First it takes about a micro cosmic slice of energy to turn your head and wave. I contacted the public affairs office after speaking to a friend who has been employed by a Major League team for many years. He stated this was actually addressed in the contract of their players, they do not have to sign autographs, they do not have to make physical contact, but they WILL ACKNOWLEDGE fans.

I received an email from the Rays stating the following……

“We thank you for your support of the Rays. We have no control over our players actions following a game. They are inundated by fans and several times by time they leave the game they are eager to get home. We apologize for your disappointment. "

I am shocked to say the least. I wonder if my 5 year old who asks me “why does B.J. not answer me?” will understand and be satisfied with this response. In my opinion it is the responsibility of each and every player to acknowledge these kids since they are basically the ones who make the sport so popular and ensure a stinkin paycheck!

I think B.J. has a p-poor attitude to begin with, second I think that the Rays should be a little more concerned with the behavior of thier “POSTER BOY”, and his reaction to these fans who so love and support him.

Does anyone have any suggestions as to who to contact to make some kind of impact on these bafoons?

Well

This explains almost everything:

Here is a good scenario, lets take all the five year olds and all the parents of those five year olds and have them withold the profit that is being spent on tickets, merchandise, etc and give it to a team and some players who can appreciate the sanctity of the sport itself. Hmmm what would happen to the Rays then. FYI…Kaz, Hickey, Navi, and a few others were very respectful and at least acknowledged. If your gonna tell me the stinkin “COMMUNITY POSTER BOY” for the Rays can’t in the midst of his state of depression over losing a game to wave to a 5 year old, he oughta be moved back down to the minors. Look at his behavior in the game a few days ago, garbage! His playing has been sub par and he has a nasty stinkin attitude. AGAIN….does anyone have any suggestions who to contact?

What the Fuck?

Did Duemig really say the Rangers pitchers were improved because of no pitch counts?

Not because uh, they went from the worst defense to a pretty good one?

by R.J. Anderson on Jun 16, 2009 8:21 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Yeaaa...Can't make this shit up.
I heard an interesting thing about him on Duemig the other day….

Jacskon said something about how he feels like a different player in Detroit because he isn’t limited to 100 pitches and 100 only. He said he’s never felt so confident because Leland will let him work out of jams and pitch late into games. This obsession with the pitch count makes me absolutely crazy, especially the way Maddon uses it to his dis-advantages.

It puts so much added pressure on these young pitchers to get it done as quick as possible because they know that they’ll be out of the game in the 5th inning. You cannot even attempt to tell me that a guy was groomed to pitch 100 pitches every time out.

Also, because of this it puts so much wear on the bullpen everyday because they work an extra 1-2 innings a night. Just let the guy build some experience and work through it more often.

This is probably my last one for the day:

Good God lady, B.J is not going to take you out to dinner:

If the Rays want to gain fans and keep them, the point is you go out of your way to make your fans happy. If this was not the case than lets go over the “Family Fun Days” and all the kids attractions at the game. I know we don’t go to the games just to pay 8 bucks for a cup of luke warm beer and 5 bucks for a hot dog. They clearly want to grow the following, and DUH this is not the way to do it.

He's really gotten control of his curve

His fastball is still straight as ever, but he’s throwing the curve more and getting some nasty swings-and-misses on it. I watched a bit of him yesterday and was impressed. Good for him, though I’m still hoping he ultimately gives us a collective Aneury-ism.

So.

Claim: The Rays are too strict with their pitch counts. They should take after the Rangers.

Truth: Let’s use facts to figure this out.

The Rangers starters throw 99 pitches per start on average, have topped 100 pitches 28 times, 120 thrice, and maxed out at 124. Meanwhile they’ve had seven starts where pitchers exited in under 80 pitches.

The Rays starters throw 97 pitches per start on average, have topped 100 pitches 29 times, 120 once, have a max of 120. Meanwhile they too have had seven starters where pitchers exited below the 80 pitch threshold.

So all this hoopla about pitch counts and such, it’s over two pitches per start. That’s it. Two pitches.

We have gotten better bench production,

and gotten unreal numbers from positions where offense is hard to come by. The offenses are virtually even in on base percentage, slugging, etc. It shouldnt be that surprising that one of them has only scored seven more runs than the other.

If I had to make a guess as to causation, I’d say it’s because on-base percentage is more valuable than slugging.

Time to feast on Fogg

We can nuke their pen for the entire series. And, I want to see a position player pitch again.

This is why I would rather see the Yankees in the playoffs.

And why the Cubs can never win the WS.

On an unrelated note, despite the fact that I am certain I've never signed up for an account here, not only DO I have an account here, but I'm logged in.

I don’t get it.

Haha

Denver is a nice city. Fairly progressive when it comes the environment and public transportation. It’s also not that expensive either. I don’t think the airport’s automated baggage handling eats that much luggage anymore either. And shit, you’ve got the mountains right there.
